Sealing Options for Standard Metric Glands

The flat sealing washer (flat gasket) seals the gland-to-enclosure interface and is an optional item for this standard series. Specify it when requesting IP68. The rubber insert seals around the cable; choose the cable range using the actual cable outside diameter, not the conductor cross-section.

List each thread size, cable outside diameter, required sealing configuration and quantity. Attach your model list or enclosure drawing if available.

Cable Entries for Control Panels and Equipment

Use this range when specifying cable entries for control panels, equipment housings and junction boxes. For outdoor, wet or chemically exposed locations, provide the temperature range and details of exposure to water, sunlight, oils or chemicals. These conditions affect material and sealing selection; a matching Metric thread alone does not establish suitability.

FAQs

Q: Which series should I select if IP68 is required?
A: Specify IP68 in your inquiry and request a suitable Premium or UL nylon model. Check the selected model’s cable range, supplied seals and installation conditions. Selecting a UL model also requires checking its certification scope; UL recognition alone does not establish an IP rating.
Q: Why are different cable ranges listed for the same Metric thread?
A: Thread size identifies the enclosure connection, while cable range identifies the cable outside diameters that a configuration accepts. Different sealing inserts can provide different cable ranges for the same thread size. Some table rows also differ in thread length or wrench size, so compare the complete row rather than ordering by thread size alone.

Check the Enclosure Before Ordering

  • Threaded entry: Verify both the Metric thread diameter and pitch.
  • Unthreaded entry: Check the finished hole diameter and specify the locknut needed to secure the gland.
  • Panel thickness: Allow for the panel and sealing washer when checking the available thread engagement.
  • Installation space: Leave room for the gland body and tightening tools, particularly where cable entries are close together.
